"I'm not going out? How am I going to see my little brothers?" Joyce couldn't believe it.
"You can see your brothers, but you must have someone accompany you and go back after seeing them," Anderson said seriously.
Just then, Luther walked in and heard Anderson's words, nodding in satisfaction.
"Andres is thoughtful. He knows to help dad take care of mom together." Joyce was speechless.
Even Alisha couldn't help but stick out her tongue at her brother.
"It must be you who taught him," Joyce glared at Luther, showing discontent.
"How could it be?" Luther immediately denied, "Andres and I just had the same idea."
At this point, Anderson took away the fruit platter. "Alright, mom, you should lie down more, rest quickly. Don't look at your phone too much, it's not good for your eyes."
Then, Anderson took Alisha away. "Don't stay here. It will affect mom's rest. I'll accompany you to play now."
"Oh." Alisha was reluctantly dragged away by Anderson.
After the two children left, Joyce stared at Luther wordlessly, "It must be you, influencing Andres. When did I say I would run around everywhere? You don't have to guard me like this. At most, I will handle some official business. What else can I do? Furthermore, look, I've already recovered. It's too much to not let me work for a month."
Luther lifted Joyce, who had already stood up, and said, "Knowing you, you must not rest properly. I've already discussed with your mom. Every night, I'll take you all, including Andres and Alisha, to see the children together. Apart from that, you must rest. Don't argue with me, this time I won't listen to you."
Joyce wanted to show her dissatisfaction, but seeing Luther's serious expression, she thought, forget it, don't argue with him. Rest for a week first, maybe ten days. Then, when the time comes, I'll negotiate with him again, don't make him so strict with her.
"Alright, I'll listen to you." Joyce reached out and hugged his neck, "I don't want to worry you anymore. Whatever you say is what I'll do."
She gave in, after all, Luther's poison had just been lifted, and she had fortunately given birth to the child safely. The whole family finally had happy and harmonious days.
Luther kissed her forehead, "Um, very obedient."
Joyce kissed him back.
After a while of sweetness, Luther pulled away from her lips, slightly out of breath, "I'll carry you to soak in the hot springs."
Joyce nodded, "But, I just gave birth, there is still blood below. Is it okay?"
"Don't worry, I consulted the doctor specifically for you. The bathwater I prepared for you has been professionally treated, distilled pure water, and the pool has been rigorously disinfected. It contains medicine prescribed by the doctor, which helps your body recover, contracts the uterus, and prevents infections. It's safe and beneficial." Luther explained, "When you were talking to Juanita just now, I went to prepare the medicated bath. I understand you must be very uncomfortable these days."
Joyce nodded vigorously, "That's great, I feel so uncomfortable all over."
Luther smiled and carried her to the top floor.
The hot spring bath was ready, with mist rising from the entire large semi-enclosed hot spring pool. It looked like a fairyland.
Luther helped Joyce undress and carried her into the hot spring pool.
Once Joyce entered the water, warmth enveloped her entire body, and comfort immediately spread, every pore opening up, it was simply too enjoyable. She completely submerged herself in the water, then resurfaced, taking a deep breath.
Luther watched her on the side, "Unfortunately, I can't bathe with you, the water in the pool is specially prepared for you. I asked the doctor, you can soak in the medicated bath twice a day, morning and evening. I will prepare it for you in advance."
Joyce turned to look at him, "Okay."
